Emirates Post has issued a set of stamps to mark the Year of Giving.

The stamps come in two different designs - the first carrying the logo for the Year of Giving 2017, while the second comes in the form of a donation box to encourage people to contribute.

The acting chief executive of Emirates Post, Abdullah Mohammed Al Ashram, said the initiative would reach people across the world.

2017 was announced as the Year of Giving by the President, Sheikh Khalifa, last December. It aims to build a spirit of volunteering, strengthen social responsibility in the private sector and boost the ideals of serving the nation among Emiratis and expatriates.
